50 L-pullups
Coach's Notes.
This is not a timed event. Focus on quality, mechanically correct L-pullups. Do not kip or butterfly this variation. Maintain a neutral head, external rotation in the shoulders and watch video below on the lower body mechanics.
Training Videos.
Two CrossFit Journal preview videos that demonstrate the L-pullup and other variations. Part 1 demonstrates the proper way to load your back and hips before starting the pull up to the bar. Part 2 demonstrates some scaling options if a pure leg straight pullup is not possible for 50 reps.
Games Update:
And if you have not checked in on the Games, the first four Regional competitions are wrapping up on Sunday. In two more weeks it will be Jacob's turn up in Chicago. Does anyone else get nauseous just reading the workouts these folks have to do?
